Glaze room

This room is used for mixing and application of glazes. It is equipped with a spray booth, a slot-hood ventilation system, a slip mixing table, storage areas and work areas.

Mold room

This room is reserved for plaster mixing, and it also houses a power sprayer for silk-screen cleaning as well as a sand-blasting booth.

Clay mixing room

This area serves for general bulk material storage as well as clay mixing, and features a powerful ventilation system for safety.

Kiln area

This area includes both a covered outdoor area which houses most of the kilns, and an adjacent area which is walled in but exposed. This area is the site for our raku and wood/salt kilns.

General studio area

Classes are held in our general studio area. There are 18 pottery wheels, extruders, a slab roller and plenty of tables for work space.  Individual studios for advanced and graduate students line the perimeter of the room (these are 11 by 8 feet in size, and usually house one graduate student or 1-3 advanced students).
